Real quick review: this SUV is beautiful but the maintenance is very poor. I have owned for over 3 years and have been in the dealership service department as if I worked there. I don't know if its the manufacturer or the technicians but there is always an issue. If you have time or money to waste this SUV is right for you. I highly recommend purchasing extended warranty.

Purchased new 2005 Range Rover in 12 2004. Differential broke at 45k miles. Broke again out of warrant at 65k miles. At 70k miles suspension shot. Differential cost 3k. Suspension 2k, but will not fix, just add springs and not use vehicle suspension. Service out of warranty is awful.

I LOVE my Range Rover. I initially had a bad experience. I bought my new Range Rover in 9/04 and within 1 week had issues with the steering. After several (3) attempts to repair, Land Rover could not fix the issue with the steering. I insisted that it needed to be exchanged and with a bit of help from Land Rover Corporate, I was given a brand new Rover at no cost. I love my new Range Rover and it performance is outstanding. I now understand why people love the vehicles so much. I was a Mercedes/BMW luxury driver before but, now I feel like I have the best of both worlds. I just hope Jaguar doens't ruin it in 2006.

I've looked for a new car for over two years. I wanted an sport utility vehicle and looked and drove the Mercedes (too small and minivan looking), the BMW X5 (too generic), the Lexus LX (poor steering response and marginal quality of some of the interior items), and the Lexus GX (too small and common). Waiting for the 2005 Range Rover was definitely worth it. The style, build quality, and smooth ride are worth the wait. Power is good, particularly in the high end. The new navigation system and voice activated telephone (using Bluetooth) are excellent and intuitive with any technical background. The ride is the best thing about the new RR, smooth with stiff and responsive steering.

Only had this car for 3 weeks,but truly love it. Got rid of a 2 yr. old Benz and took a beating, but what a difference in quality! The 5k pricetag for the upgraded interior seems steep but is worth the price .Handles great and is a pleasure to drive.
